About who needs care: 92-year-old father with dementia. Needs help getting up in the morning, showering, serving breakfast, taking for walksand to the bathroom. Light housekeeping. He is the sweetest guy and an Army Vet. Likes gardening and watching game shows and sports. Morning caregivers get him up out of bed, he uses a walker and gives him a shower, breakfast. He gets up every hour to walk around the house and then to the bathroom. My 86-year-old mom is also there although she is fairly self sufficient. Some minor light cleaning mostly sanitizing his bathroom and maybe folding some clothes or running the vacuum to help my mom.
About the care needs: He gets along best with a relaxed and conversational caregiver. They need to be able to use a gate belt as he needs help getting up out of bed ad out of his wheelchair. He likes to be able to get outsize and there is a wheelchair ramp that can be used. Understanding he has dementia and some things he says do not make sense.
Services needed include: meal preparation, errands / shopping, light housekeeping, feeding, and bathing / dressing. ... more
